Here at wrk as usual, starting my water now. I amanaged about 9 yesterday. Did my curves workout then finally started 30 day shred. Of course when she got to the push ups I stopped, cant do them ughh, hurts my wrists. will work on it though. I watched the rest of it to see what I was in for and I think its doable, will be ver hard at first but I am willing to do it.
Tonight I am thinking grilled chicken and veggies for dinner. Ohh also trying to work in the bulk of my calories in the am and lunch time. I find that I am not eating enough during the day then ther eis no way I can make it up or even want to try to make it up in the evenings.0 -
My mood is slowly getting better today. My migraine is starting to go, and I have 2 cups of water in so far. I decided last night that I need help being positive towards this whole process, because I catch myself so often feeling like it's punishment. Like cooking a healthy meal is a bad thing, or working out. So I grabbed a dry erase marker and kinda did a border around my bathroom mirror with words like Commitment, Confidence, Drive, Strength, Worth, and Determination. I think it'll help keep me in that positive attitude until I make these things habit. :flowerforyou:0

have you tried the 100 calorie kettle corn from Orville Redenbacher? It's a great somewhat sweet and somewhat salty fix for me and only like 2 grams of fat....I realize it's not the healthiest but it's better than fat free chips or something like that.0 -

so my start weight is 154lbs and has been that for two weeks, drinking 3 litres per day and maintaining 1200cals, just wish the scale would start moving, maybe this group will be the motivater
You might need to up your calories a little to get the scale moving. I know that sounds odd, but I upped mine to 1350 and it worked better for me.
Me to - I try to net at least 1300 on big exercise days I might fall a little below when I was at 1200 I stopped losing.
Sarairis-just be patient sometimes adding calories could show an increase for a bit but it will go away again.0 -

How's the school work coming??
Is your headache better?0 -
Good Morning Blues!
I got 6 glasses of water yesterday, today I WILL get all 8 but I'm sure it's better than before. Thanks to everyone for such a supportive group. I had to log on this morning to recharge my motivation. One of my students brought me homemade lumpia (eggrolls) just now, still warm with her happy little face. I was able to limit myself and only eat 1 small one, but the rest are still on my desk, tempting me. Tried to get her to share with everyone, but she "made them just for me..." :ohwell: Love these kids ......anyway thanks everyone for helping me stay strong.0 -

If you are really having a hard time eating enough calories, there are planty of calorie dense foods that you can try. I recommend starting with chicken and lean beef and plenty of vegetables and fruits. I am like a vacuum cleaner if I don't keep a tight reign on myself, so I don't have a problem consuming enough calories (more like a problem consuming too much). If you are still having problems, I would recommend a protein shake or protein bar of some sort. They are low in fat, and carbs, (most of them) and will increase your calorie intake without increasing the amount of garbage.0 -
